February is almost over...but it's still Pet Dental Health Month so let's talk about dental accidents!
Most pets don’t show any outward sense of distress/discomfort, so it is really important to peek inside their mouths from time to time at home. 🦷 😳
This dog had a badly broken lower canine tooth. The x-ray shows that the pulp, or center of the tooth, is broken completely open and exposed to the “outside world“, making it a source of pain and infection.
The tooth was removed surgically, confirmed via post-op x-rays, and closed with absorbable stitches to help it heal.
If you notice anything funky like this going on in your dogs mouth, get them in for an exam to be evaluated. They will appreciate it!

Did you know that February 20th is National Love your Pet Day? 🥳 (that’s today!)
Beyond the every day love and care you provide your pet, below are some ideas for what you can do to make them feel even more special on this day!
1. Upgrade their pet toys: finding a new or stimulating toy for your furry friend may be the perfect way to brighten their day! Try to find something high quality that will last a long time, as opposed to being shredded in a week 🧸
2. Spend quality time with them: our furry friends cherish the time they get to spend with us. Why not sit back and watch a movie with them? You could take them on their favorite hike. Or for cats, engage in play with their favorite toy for active play!
3. Give them a special treat: lots of pets get enjoyment out of getting homemade dog biscuits, snap peas, carrots (or other pet friendly vegetables), plain cooked salmon or even cooked eggs!
4. Get creative: have a photo shoot, teach your pet a new trick, have a doggie spa day- the options are endless
Moral of the story: your pets love spending time with you and they deserve to be reminded about how much you love them 💕

Your Local Aurora Veterinarians!
Welcome to Parkside Animal Health Center! We are an American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) accredited animal hospital located in the 80015 zip code of Aurora, CO. Our veterinarians provide basic wellness services, including dog vaccines, cat vaccines, routine lab work and examinations for healthy pets- because pets need regular check-ups too! But our animal hospital really shines when it comes to caring for your sick dog, cat or other small animals. Our experienced team of veterinarians and veterinary technicians will start with the most essential diagnostics, and with Parkside Animal Health Center, you get the results on the spot. We can test blood, urine and fecal samples all within our hospital for immediate results. X-rays are performed by hospital staff and reviewed by a veterinarian at the time of your appointment. For any testing that we can’t handle within our practice, we are still able to send out samples and get results within 24-48 hours.
Our Animal Hospital’s Core Values
We want to get your pet feeling better and keep them feeling their best for as long as possible. We treat your pets like members of the family- because they are! But it’s more than that. Our animal hospital sticks to a set of well-established core values in order to provide the best care for every pet and person we see.- First, we focus on education and science as a fundamental component of practicing veterinary medicine and running an effective animal hospital. We are scientists and we are animal lovers. We reinvest in ourselves so that our hospital staff and veterinarians are on the cutting edge of research in terms of technology, new breakthroughs, and skills. We also reinvest in our animal hospital which is clean, modern and efficient. Additionally, we reinvest in the best equipment (like our new therapeutic laser!) so that we can offer our pets and patrons the best possible service.
- Second, we are committed to friendship, compassion, empathy, and warmth. We love animals but we also love the people that look after them. We know what it’s like to have a sick pet and we know how hard it can be. But we also know how great it feels to see them get better. Everything we do in our hospital is influenced by our core values of empathy and compassion.
- Third, we value communication, respect, integrity, and honesty. We want to be an informative and honest partner in your pursuit of animal health. We know there is a lot of information and opinion out there and it can get confusing. We pride ourselves on being the veterinarians you can go to for an honest and upfront answer to every question.
